 Benjamin Stephan studied design and computer sciences 
 at the University of Applied Sciences Augsburg.

 Christoph Haag studied design at the Academy of Media Arts 
 Cologne / Department of Hybrid Space.

 Since 2001 they are working together as LAFKON Publishing, 
 doing research, experimentation and commercially applied design.
 The conviction that the process of design may not be 
 reducable to the styling of a surface has led us to a 
 continous research on the application and bending of 
 design technologies as our access to visual form.
 Not pressing but making knobs.
